While it wasn't quite able to reach the series high mark, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1's
outstanding $138.1 million opening indicated that the sexy teen
vampires are as popular as ever. What does appear to have lost some of
its appeal, however, is dancing penguins: Happy Feet Two
struggled to even open to half as much as its popular 2006 predecessor.
Overall box office was up around 14 percent to over $221 million, and
the weekend currently ranks as the sixth-highest on record.
